Immunobiology of Xenotransplantation (U01)

 

This Funding Opportunity Announcement solicits applications to participate in the Immunobiology of Xenotransplantation Cooperative Research Program (IXCRP) for the development of preclinical porcine to nonhuman primate (NHP) models of islet, kidney, heart, lung, or liver xenotransplantation. The goals of this program are to: (1) delineate the cellular and molecular mechanisms of xenograft rejection and the induction of tolerance; (2) develop effective strategies to improve xenograft survival; and (3) characterize the physiological compatibility/limitations of xenografts. The long-term goal of this program is to develop novel and effective strategies for application of xenotransplantation in the clinic.
